    About InvestEngine


    InvestEngine is everything the modern investor should need. Unbeatable value, market-leading automation, and built for easy, long-term investing. We've built a strong foundation, have over £2 billion invested, award-winning service, and a passionate team, now we're ready to scale.

    About the Role


    We're looking for a Head of Compliance Assurance to join our Compliance team. You'll be responsible for providing independent, expert oversight of regulatory compliance across the business, ensuring our frameworks, controls, and outcomes are effective, sustainable, and fully defensible to the FCA.

    This role is ideal for someone who's confident operating with independence and authority, comfortable with complexity, and motivated by building robust assurance that supports both regulatory confidence and strong customer outcomes.

    You'll work closely with Product, Operations, Data, Risk, Advisory, and Financial Crime teams, and have the autonomy to own assurance activities end to end — from planning and testing through to governance reporting and validation of long‑term fixes.

    What You'll Do

    • Lead the design, ownership, and delivery of the Compliance Monitoring Programme (CMP), ensuring timely completion and high-quality, actionable outputs.

    • Plan and execute thematic reviews across areas such as suitability, product governance (PROD), financial promotions, and operational controls.

    • Provide independent pre‑ and post‑implementation assurance over change initiatives, validating control effectiveness before and after launch.

    • Oversee the identification, investigation, and root‑cause analysis of regulatory breaches and control weaknesses in partnership with the Risk function.

    • Own and manage complex remediation programmes (for example, suitability or data rectification exercises), ensuring clear governance, evidence standards, and sustainable outcomes.

    • Deliver Consumer Duty assurance, including outcomes testing, oversight of key metrics, and assessment of customer impact.

    • Produce clear, risk‑based assurance MI for ExCo, the Risk Committee, and the Board.

    • Build and maintain automated dashboards to track issue status, assurance findings, and progress of corrective actions.

    • Validate that fixes are fully embedded and operating effectively before transition into BAU.

    What We're Looking For

    • 8+ years of experience in fintech and regulated environments, with retail investor sector experience (e.g., investment platforms, wealth/investing products).

    • Strong knowledge of FCA expectations and frameworks, including Consumer Duty, suitability, DISP, and product governance.

    • Proven experience designing and executing assurance or monitoring programmes with robust testing methodologies and evidence standards.

    • Ability to lead complex, multi‑phase programmes involving investigation, analysis, coordination, and delivery across multiple teams.

    • Experience overseeing complex corrective action programmes (e.g., suitability or data rectification), including root‑cause analysis, end‑to‑end documentation, and FCA‑defensible evidence standards.

    • Strong analytical skills with exceptional attention to detail and the ability to identify trends and root causes.

    • English fluency (C1 level and above) — we are a UK-based company, and the role involves regular communication with the team.

    Nice to Have

    • Background in high-growth start-ups.
